Appreciate God’s Blessings!

I didn't know how good I had it,

until I lost what I owned.

I lost my family, possessions,

and home..

I tried to live a life according

 to a "good principle."

I let pride get in the way and

 felt kind of "invincible."

I once had money, wealth and some fame.

Now I feel alone

and ashamed.

I feel empty, afraid

and "at my wit's end."

Everyone. it seems, has left me.

 Even my close friends.

Jesus... You're the one I know

that I can call upon.

You make things "right"

when all seems "wrong."

What you can give to me,

money could never buy.

I humbly kneel before you Lord,

with a desperate cry.

Please help me dear lord...

 I know that you can.

I read in your word that you are;

"I AM that I AM!"

In YOU... Jesus...

I can find life's meaning.

Your life for mine, is what I'm now believing.

You're my best friend whom

I love so much.

I need your mercy and peace!

Your "special touch."

You alone can bring love and joy,

 that wealth can never give.

You brought me hope and peace

 and a reason to live!
